Chapter 37: The Third Stage Begins

When Ningcheng's official website released the matchup table for the third stage of our Super Tournament, countless people were in an uproar, and the object of their uproar was not anyone else, it was us, and the entire Ningcheng people were talking.

"I heard that in the third stage of this super competition, there were teams from the ancient city to participate."

When people who don't know hear the news, they are shocked and don't need to say, "What? The Old Town is also here? In the game of the second-tier team, what is the blind participation of a third-tier team? Isn't this looking for abuse? ”

"No, only one of the 25 teams is a third-tier team, and the others are all second-tier teams, I see, the team in that ancient city is probably going to be reduced to a slaughtered lamb."

"I heard that this team is still an alien team." Someone who knows a lot about this super tournament said.

"I really don't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, it's not easy to win the championship in the ancient city, isn't it good to be honest, and now he came to participate in the third stage of the competition, he thought they were the Radiant team."

In the past two years, the foreign team that can make a name for itself in Ningcheng is only a Radiant team, and the other foreign teams have long been overwhelmed by countless strong teams.

We forcibly went to participate in the third stage of the competition this time, not only the other districts of Ningcheng made a noise, but also the people in the ancient city were a little puzzled and ridiculed.

"This reincarnation team has really won the championship, and their self-confidence has swelled, and they dare to argue with the second-tier team, which is really looking for death."

"That is, in previous years, the team in the ancient city area went to challenge the second-line team, but they were brutally abused, and now, no one wants to be abused, and this reincarnation team is really in a hurry to send it up."

"Forget about being embarrassed, and discredit the ancient city, this reincarnation team is going to participate in the competition as the champion of the ancient city, if we are abused, we will have no face."

"Hey, outsiders are outsiders after all."

There are a lot of people in the old town who shake their heads and sigh at us, and they are very angry at us.

"It's hard to say, the reincarnation team can win the th team, I'm afraid it has the strength of the second-tier team." Some people still believe in us.

However, it was quickly refuted, "Didn't you watch the finals of the TH team and the reincarnation team?" They can win the th team, which can only show that they have similar strength to the th team, but they play better, do you think the second-tier team is a cabbage, so easy to have the strength of the second-tier? ”

What this person said is not false, nationwide, there are tens of thousands of third-tier teams, as for tens of thousands, it can't be counted at all, but there are only more than 1,000 second-tier teams in China, or even less, which is enough to see the gap between the third-tier teams and the second-tier teams.

The difference is very different!

However, when we played against the TH team, we didn't use up our hole cards, and we also had reservations in operation, so many people think that we can win the TH team just by playing well, and the real strength is on par with the TH team.

However, what is our strength, this time the third stage of the competition will be thoroughly verified, whether it is a dragon or a dog, once the game is announced.

On our side, after Qin Fan knew the grouping of the game, he immediately analyzed with us, "We are in Group B this time, and many teams must want to get points from us, which is also an opportunity for us to score points." ”

I listened and nodded, Qin Fan's analysis was right, if we fight, the other teams in the same group will have the idea that we are a third-tier weak chicken team from the ancient city, as long as they have such thoughts, they will definitely be careless, after all, if they fight against a team that is a big grade weaker than themselves, they will not do their best in their hearts.

Even if they try their best, they may not be able to beat us, let alone not give it their all.

"But none of those second-tier teams are fuel-efficient lamps, and they will definitely not do their best against us at the beginning, but we can't be careless, otherwise, we will lose." Qin Fan admonished.

Several of us nodded when we listened, from now on, the team we are in contact with can be said to be a real strong team, each team will have its own style and style of play, strong strength, is an enemy we cannot underestimate.

"By the way, you all watched the exhibition match of the first-team team coming to the e-sports stadium this afternoon, right?" Qin Fan asked.

When I heard Qin Fan's words, I immediately said, "Yes, this kind of exhibition match of Cheng DΓΉ's strong team is naturally to be well observed." ”

In the afternoon, after Ye Liangchen and I finished talking, we went back to the e-sports stadium, just as the exhibition match also began, although the two first-line teams had a playful attitude, but some of their details and awareness were real.

Qin Fan nodded when he heard my words, "Needless to say, the operation of the first-line team is indeed stronger than us, but what is more terrifying is their details, consciousness and operation, the higher the game of League of Legends, the bigger the gap is not the operation, but the consciousness level, but it is not just training that can be trained, which is why I took you to challenge the team in the ancient city every day, more to hone your consciousness." ”

Consciousness is like a soldier's combat experience, this kind of thing, just by the soldier's daily training can never be practiced, only soldiers who have really participated in life and death will have such combat experience.

If two special forces with equal individual strength fight, the side with the stronger combat experience will undoubtedly be the one who can survive to the end.

It's the same with playing League of Legends, some professional players in the first team can even compare to the players of the top teams, but why he can't become a top professional player is because he can't keep up with the top professional players in addition to the operation.

Today we watched the exhibition match of the first team this afternoon, and found that what was really bad on our side was not the operation, but the awareness. If our consciousness is not improved, then we will always be able to step at the level of the second line.

"The competition lasted for more than a month, during which we couldn't slack off for the rest of the time except for the normal competition, and followed me to train!"

"Huh?" As soon as we heard this, several of us said in unison. In the past few months, we have been training with Qin Fan, day and night, I thought that this third stage of the competition could have a rest, but I didn't expect that it would still be difficult to escape Qin Fan's clutches.

"Ahh Qin Fan looked at us and said angrily, "I watched the exhibition match of the two first-line teams today, and I also learned a lot about their operation methods and details, we are going to imitate their operations for a while, and then turn to develop our own style when the imitation is thorough, in this way, our strength can be improved in a short period of time, and even in the face of the second-tier teams, we have the capital to compete with them." ”

Our luck in this game is good, because the largest district in Ningcheng is holding an LPL promotion match, and those peak teams in the second-tier level have all gone to Donglin District in order to go further.

The remaining second-tier teams are running to participate in this Ningcheng Super Competition, naturally there is no super strong team in this competition, and the most powerful team is only at the level of the upper second-tier team, and the Radiance team is in this grade, so this time, the Radiant team is likely to win one. If we want to play against them, we will only have to meet them after we have qualified from Group B.

And this time, we have a very strong opponent in Group B, called the Psionic Team, this team is the champion of Ning'an District to participate in the competition, that is to say, the Radiant Team lost to this team in the final of Ning'an District, and the team that can defeat the Radiant Team is not to mention how strong they are, at least, they are not weaker than the Radiant Team.

Therefore, it is not an easy thing for us to qualify for Group B, not only the strong teams are among them, but all the teams will do their best in the later stages, and every battle we have will be a hard battle.

"Rest early, tomorrow afternoon is our first battle, this first battle, we must fight beautifully!"

The next morning, after we got up early and finished our morning exercises, Qin Fan called us to train, and he planned some training methods for us last night.

Arranged us in a five-person box in an Internet cafΓ©, Qin Fan told us the training method and left with Tian Bing.

The first two phases of this Ningcheng Super Tournament are very popular, although there are only twenty-five teams participating in the third stage, but the streets are still full of people from various districts to watch the game, and the excitement is not as good as before, and this tournament can be compared to the LSP League, which is broadcast for the whole country, and every player who loves League of Legends across the country can see it.

Qin Fan took Tian Bing and left, naturally going to the e-sports stadium in Ning'an District, because the five of us had to continue training and couldn't watch the game, so understanding the strength of other teams was naturally left to Qin Fan to do.

The training time of the morning passed quickly, and when Qin Fan and Tian Bing came back with food at noon, it was less than two hours before our afternoon competition.

"Brother Fan, how was the match between those two teams this morning?"

Our matches are played in the same BO3 format as the LPL and LSPL leagues, and the winner of BO3 earns 1 point. And the game is a double round-robin format, which means that each team can play against the other team twice, which is a very good format for us, because we are always improving, maybe the opponent we met today is slightly better than us, then when we meet them again in two weeks, they may not be our opponents.

Hearing my words, Qin Fan took a bite of food with chopsticks, and then said, "The second-tier team's competition is much stronger than that of the third-tier team, and there is an obvious gap in both operation and awareness. ”
